Miss Fatle said other residents of the North Bank flats, in Sheffield city centre, called her over and she saw her daughter had fallen.
She explained to the jury how she lived with her family on the eighth floor of the block and they used the fourth-floor communal garden from time-to-time. Miss Fatle told the jury how Ryaheen was born in Iraq but the family moved to the UK in 2011 as her father, Hikmat Banimuslem, was studying for a PhD in material physics at Sheffield University. After today's verdict, Mark Auty, specialist prosecutor in the CPS Special Crime Division, said: "This terrible incident was caused by Robert Warner removing a glass panel from a fourth floor walkway of a residential apartment block. "In order to replace a damaged panel in the garden area of the apartments, he deliberately removed a panel from a less obvious place, leaving an unprotected gap through which two-year-old Ryaheen Banimuslem tragically fell to her death. "Robert Warner took no steps to prevent access to the gap in the panels and did nothing to warn others of the danger. Although he did not intend to cause the death of a child, today's verdict has found that it is because of his gross negligence, and the obvious dangers he created, that Ryaheen is no longer with us. "Our thoughts are with Ryaheen's family at this time." South Yorkshire Police said the jury found Warner guilty by a majority. Detective Inspector Sean Bird, who lead the investigation, said: "This was a tragic incident which could so easily have been avoided. "This has been a highly unusual investigation. In my 23 years of policing, I have never known a case like this. "The guilty verdict of gross negligence manslaughter today will be of little comfort to Ryaheen's family, but I hope that the decision allows them to move forward from this very painful chapter in their lives. "I would like to pay tribute to Ryaheen's family who have shown tremendous strength throughout this protracted investigation and to the team of dedicated officers and specialists who have worked tirelessly to bring this case to a conclusion. "I would also like to thank the people who came forward throughout the course of this investigation to offer their help and support." Ryaheen's parents have said they do not wish to comment.
